1.65 MI LLION U.S. PROPERTI ES RECEIVE FORECLOSURE FI LINGS IN

FIRST HALF OF 2010 ACCORDING TO REALTYTRAC

Bank Repos Hit Another Record High in Q2 While Defaults and Auctions Decrease

June Marks Third Straight Monthly Decrease in Overall Foreclosure Filings

IRVINE, Calif. July 15, 2010 RealtyTrac (www.realtytrac.com), the leading onlinemarketplace for foreclosure properties, today released its Midyear 2010 U.S. ForeclosureMarket Report, which shows a total of 1,961,894 foreclosure filings default notices, auctionsale notices and bank repossessions were reported on 1,654,634 U.S. properties in the firstsix months of 2010, a 5 percent decrease in total properties from the previous six months butan 8 percent increase in total properties from the first six months of 2009. The report alsoshows that 1.28 percent of all U.S. housing units (one in 78) received at least one foreclosurefiling in the first half of the year.

Foreclosure filings were reported on 313,841 U.S. properties in June, a decrease of nearly 3

percent from the previous month and a decrease of nearly 7 percent from June 2009. Junewas the sixteenth straight month where the total number of properties with foreclosure filingsexceeded 300,000.

Foreclosure filings were reported on 895,521 U.S. properties during the second quarter, adecrease of nearly 4 percent from the previous quarter and an increase of less than 1 percentfrom the second quarter of 2009. Default and auction notices were down on a quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year basis in the second quarter, but bank repossessions (REOs)increased 5 percent from the previous quarter and 38 percent from Q2 2009 to 269,962 anew quarterly high for the report.

The second quarter was a tale of two trends, said James J. Saccacio, chief executive officerof RealtyTrac. The pace of properties entering foreclosure slowed as lenders pre-empted ordelayed foreclosure proceedings on delinquent properties with more aggressive short sale and

loan modification initiatives. Meanwhile the pace of properties completing the foreclosureprocess through bank repossession quickened as lenders cleared out a backlog of distressedinventory delayed by foreclosure prevention efforts in 2009.

The midyear numbers put us on pace to exceed 3 million properties with foreclosure filings bythe end of the year, and more than 1 million bank repossessions, Saccacio continued. Theroller coaster pattern of foreclosure activity over the past 12 months demonstrates that whilethe foreclosure problem is being managed on the surface, a massive number of distressedproperties and underwater loans continues to sit just below the surface, threatening the fragilestability of the housing market.

Nevada, Arizona, Florida post top state foreclosure ratesNearly 6 percent of all Nevada housing units (one in 17) received at least one foreclosure filingin the first half of 2010, giving Nevada the nations highest foreclosure rate during the six-

month period despite decreasing foreclosure activity. A total of 64,429 Nevada propertiesreceived a foreclosure filing from January to June, a decrease of 13 percent from the previoussix months and a decrease of 6 percent from the first six months of 2009.

Arizona registered the nations second highest state foreclosure rate in the first half of 2010,with 3.36 percent of its housing units (one in 30) receiving a foreclosure filing, and Floridaregistered the nations third highest state foreclosure rate, with 3.15 percent of its housingunits (one in 32) receiving a foreclosure filing during the six months.

Report methodologyThe RealtyTrac Midyear U.S. Foreclosure Market Report provides a count of the total numberof properties with at least one foreclosure filing entered into the RealtyTrac database duringthe first six months of the year. Some foreclosure filings entered into the database during thesix-month period may have been recorded in previous months. Data is collected from morethan 2,200 counties nationwide, and those counties account for more than 90 percent of theU.S. population. RealtyTracs report incorporates documents filed in all three phases offoreclosure: Default Notice of Default (NOD) and Lis Pendens (LIS); Auction Notice ofTrustee Sale and Notice of Foreclosure Sale (NTS and NFS); and Real Estate Owned, or REOproperties (that have been foreclosed on and repurchased by a bank). The report does notcount a property again if it receives the same type of foreclosure filing multiple times withinthe estimated foreclosure timeframe for the state where the property is located.
